In partnership with the Guthrie Theater, The Advocates will engage audience members in a panel after a performance of Clybourne Park.

 

Clybourne Parkis a 2010 play written in response to Lorraine Hansberry’s 1959 play, A Raisin in the Sun. It is comprised of two acts, set 50 years

apart. Act One takes place in 1959, as nervous community leaders anxiously try to stop the sale of a home to a black family. Act Two is set in the same house in the present day, as the now predominately African-American neighborhood battles to hold its ground in the face of gentrification.
